5 Major Updates On The *Entourage* Reboot, New Show, And Where The Cast Is Now In 2025
The enduring saga of Vincent Chase, Eric "E" Murphy, Turtle, Johnny Drama, and the iconic agent Ari Gold has captured the imagination of fans for over two decades, and the question of a proper *Entourage* reboot remains one of Hollywood's most persistent mysteries. As of late December 2025, while an official HBO revival of the original series is still uncertain, there is a massive amount of fresh, unique content, a spiritual successor series, and constant chatter from the original cast that proves the demand for the Hollywood comedy-drama is stronger than ever.
The original series, which aired on HBO from 2004 to 2011, chronicled the life of rising A-list actor Vince Chase and his childhood friends navigating the glitz, glamour, and pitfalls of Los Angeles. Today, the latest updates revolve around a new show from the creator, a hugely popular weekly podcast, and the fact that nearly every main cast member is publicly “game” for a reunion, fueling speculation that a full-scale *Entourage* return is only a matter of time.
The Cast of *Entourage*: A Biographical Look at the Core Four and Ari Gold
The success of *Entourage* hinged on the chemistry of its main cast, portraying the dynamics between the celebrity, the manager, the driver, the brother, and the agent. Here is a look at the key players and their latest activities, which are central to any potential revival.
- Adrian Grenier (Vincent Chase): The star of the show, Vince Chase, was the magnetic center of the friend group. Since the 2015 *Entourage* movie, Grenier has focused on environmental activism and other projects. He starred in the Netflix series *Clickbait* and the film *The Last Summer*. His current status as the "A-list" actor is often a topic of fan discussion.
- Kevin Connolly (Eric "E" Murphy): Vince's best friend and manager, E, was the grounded voice of reason. Connolly has moved heavily into directing, helming films like *Gotti* and episodes of television. He has also been a key figure in the new projects alongside creator Doug Ellin.
- Kevin Dillon (Johnny "Drama" Chase): Vince's older, less successful, but infinitely loyal half-brother, Drama, provided endless comic relief. Dillon remains closely tied to the *Entourage* universe, co-hosting the official podcast and starring in the upcoming spiritual successor series, *Ramble On*.
- Jerry Ferrara (Salvatore "Turtle" Assante): The lovable driver and entrepreneur, Turtle, evolved from a sidekick to a successful businessman by the series' end. Ferrara has been active in film and television, with roles in *Power* and *Think Like a Man*. He has also publicly stated he is "game" for an *Entourage* reboot.
- Jeremy Piven (Ari Gold): The high-octane, Emmy-winning talent agent, Ari Gold, is arguably the show's most iconic character. Piven has starred in the series *Mr Selfridge* and continues to perform stand-up comedy. Piven recently revealed that he believes there is a significant "hunger" for an *Entourage* reboot among fans.
The Real *Entourage* Reboot: Why *Ramble On* is the New Must-Watch
While a direct continuation of *Entourage* on HBO remains in limbo, the show's creator, Doug Ellin, has reunited with two of the core stars for a new series that is being hailed as the spiritual successor. This new project, *Ramble On*, is the freshest and most concrete development for fans in 2025.
The series reunites Ellin with Kevin Connolly (E) and Kevin Dillon (Drama), focusing on the lives of three Hollywood veterans who are dealing with a new, rapidly changing entertainment industry. The show’s premise is particularly timely, reportedly centering on the theme of being "cancelled".
This new venture allows the creative team to explore modern Hollywood themes—like social media scrutiny, streaming wars, and "cancel culture"—that were non-existent during *Entourage*'s original run. Early trailers for *Ramble On* have already dropped, generating significant buzz and excitement that this will be the new chapter fans have been waiting for, providing the same behind-the-scenes look at the industry that made the original show a hit.
From HBO to Headset: The Triumph of the *Victory* Podcast
The most consistent and successful continuation of the *Entourage* universe is not on a streaming service, but in the world of podcasts. Victory: The Official Entourage Podcast has become a massive hit, keeping the fanbase engaged and the topical authority of the series alive.
Hosted by creator Doug Ellin and star Kevin Dillon (Johnny Drama), the weekly comedy podcast sees the duo reliving the hit HBO show, episode by episode. This platform has become the central hub for all reunion and reboot speculation, as the hosts frequently invite former cast members and crew to discuss behind-the-scenes stories, character development, and the show's lasting cultural impact.
The podcast’s success demonstrates the strong, ongoing appetite for the world of *Entourage*. It serves as a constant reminder to fans and industry executives alike that the brand is still highly valuable. Furthermore, Ellin also hosts another podcast, *Is That Something You Might Be Interested In*, where he details his career journey and life experiences, often touching upon his work on the beloved series.
The Reboot Question: Why It Hasn't Happened and What It Would Look Like
The question of a full *Entourage* reboot has been a hot topic for years, with both the cast and creator expressing interest. The series ended its run in 2011, followed by a 2015 movie, and ever since, rumors have swirled about a return.
The main cast members, including Jeremy Piven, Jerry Ferrara, and Kevin Dillon, have all publicly confirmed they are eager to return to their roles as Ari Gold, Turtle, and Johnny Drama. Creator Doug Ellin has stated he would make a reboot if executive producer Mark Wahlberg returned to the project, indicating that securing the key creative and financial players is the main hurdle.
Mark Wahlberg, whose early Hollywood experiences inspired the show, has joked that a modern reboot would see the characters "exercising early and going to church," reflecting a shift from the show's original, more hedonistic tone. A new series would undoubtedly have to address how the characters have matured and adapted to the modern, more scrutinized Hollywood landscape, potentially exploring themes of fatherhood, marriage, and maintaining relevance in a youth-obsessed industry.
Beyond the Boys: Where Are the Minor Stars Now?
One of the show's most impressive legacies is the sheer number of guest stars and minor characters who went on to become major A-list celebrities. This factor adds significant topical authority to the show's history, highlighting its role as a launching pad for talent.
For example, Gal Gadot, the star of the *Wonder Woman* franchise, had a minor role in the series before her global fame. Similarly, Leighton Meester, known for her role in *Gossip Girl*, and Carla Gugino, a major film and television star, also appeared in the series. Other notable talents who had early roles include Constance Zimmer, Dania Ramirez, Scott Caan, Ryan Eggold, Ken Jeong, Yvette Nicole Brown, and Joey King.
The incredible depth of talent that passed through the *Entourage* set underscores its powerful place in Hollywood history, proving that the series was not just a fictional account of celebrity life, but a genuine part of the star-making machinery.
The Future of the *Entourage* Universe
The *Entourage* universe is far from over. While the official HBO reboot remains a possibility dependent on the right timing and the return of key players like Mark Wahlberg, the spirit of the show thrives. The success of *Victory: The Official Entourage Podcast* ensures the conversation never stops, and the anticipation for *Ramble On*, featuring Kevin Connolly and Kevin Dillon, provides a fresh, new series that captures the same energy and humor. Fans can rest assured that the Hollywood life of the boys from Queens is still being written, one way or another, in 2025 and beyond.
